Immigration 3

Arizona passes a law that requires that their police to assist in the enforcement of Federal immigration laws and the Executive Branch announces that they will seek an injunction against the Arizona law. The proffered reason is that we can’t have 50 different immigration policies.
A number of "sanctuary cities" adopt policies designed to oppose the enforcement of the immigration laws.  Obama's press secretary cannot answer (July 7, 2010) a question about why the target is Arizona and not the sanctuary cities.
Obama’s predecessors were also negligent about enforcing the immigration laws. But apparently Obama has decided to go them one better. He is going to make sure that nobody enforces the immigration laws.

  1. If the chief law enforcement official of the land chooses not to enforce laws or chooses to enforce them selectively AND this course of action has broad base support are we still a nation of laws?
